<div dir="ltr">Maria,<div><br></div><div>That limit of 400 is really quite critical in pricing. At that number of participants you can use university venues or venues that are just tied to hotels. Once you get above 400-500 people, you really need start using actual conference centers which make many of the costs sky rocket and also limit your flexibility to offer differential pricing since the conference center deals generally require things like room blocks and enormous food minimums. Even at a much higher conference cost, for a large international conference, the conference fee is generally going to be vastly overshadowed by other travel costs like flights and hotel.</div><div><br></div><div>This is where having a great system of the BIG international show that may be out of reach for many along with many smaller regional events that can reduce travel and conference expenses can really help us be responsive to everyone.

<div>Do you think you would have been able to accommodate 800-900 people at those rates in that venue? If so we should look at Como for 2019.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I think the economics will vary for each city and venue. Perhaps we should make it clear that we would welcome alternative venue and cost proposals that potentially make the event cheaper to attend without excluding the possibility of a higher
priced venue. If we get options running between say $200 for the 3 days and $650 then the conference committee will have an interesting choice to make.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>For 2018 we could also express our desire to make the event as accessible as possible and see what options are submitted?<br>

<div>Dear Michael, I wonder how it was possible for me to organize a conference with a fee of 100 euro for 3 days ( 50 euro for students). I understand that Boston is more expensive than Como. But more than three times? Is it not possible to organize
the conference at one university? Keeping the costs low means giving more possibility of participation to the people of our community.</div>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">As the group in the "on deck circle", this has been a very interesting and important thread to read. I hope that sharing the Boston team's outlook and perspective is useful to this conversation.
Indeed, many of the things we believe and are pursuing are already reflected:</div>
<div class="gmail_default">
<ol>
<li><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">As Venka observes, we are not pursuing a "budget venue" approach. We are in a large, urban city and as Steven wrote the economics for finding this kind of space make $100/day really, really difficult
(if not impossible). But, we also believe we are in a desirable location with a dynamic tech city and an incredible academic community that will help draw interest. We also want to create a local, regional and USA buzz so that Boston is The Place to Be for
understanding some of the international trends in geo open source, and even the <i>
geo industry</i> more broadly. As Eddie Pickle has observed, why shouldn't FOSS4G be the #2 "geo event" on the planet? In other words, one of our goals is to attract
<i>more</i> people who will be able to pay the full costs of the conference. From our vantage, this shouldn't be a "low budget affair", it should be an important "international happening."</font></li><li><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">That said, we fully understand the reality and necessity to keep the show as affordable as possible, and that there are very important communities that we would like to have attend where the published
costs will be a challenge. We have plans for student volunteers and other kinds of discounts already. But, the way that some of the conference economics work, there is a tipping point where a larger conference actually can be a lower of the core conference
costs (i.e., the venue, wifi, video, etc.) are prorated across more people. We want to be the first FOSS4G to draw >1,000 people and we think we have a good shot at it. We also are going to be very aggressive in pursuing sponsorship, both from the established
sponsor community, but also from first time sponsors, and tech companies in Boston. This too will help generate revenue and control costs. If we meet our attendance and sponsorship goals, we will return a significant profit to OSGeo and we hope that those
profits can be used for the kinds of programs that Eli mentioned, i.e., committees that distribute travel grants; or provide support to events in the developing world; etc. Indeed, we have already proposed to follow Cameron's suggestion and expressed our return
of profit to OSGeo as a percentage. Our proposal states returning 80% of profits up to $100K, and 100% of profits that are above $100k should we be lucky enough to be that successful.</font></li></ol>
<div><font face="tahoma, sans-serif">Having just returned from Bonn, we are more excited and more committed than ever (I just posted a
<a href="http://www.appgeo.com/blog/picked-pieces-global-2017-foss4g-conference-bonn-germany/" target="_blank">
blog on my impressions and experiences</a>). And, we believe we can follow Till's and the Bonn LOC's example in making this an exciting and dynamic event in a unique part of the world. Bonn's World Conference Center venue was worth its cost and added greatly
to the event. We believe people will come to this kind of event; and we are equally committed in using the paying audience as a means of controlling costs and/or providing discounts to those who need them.</font></div>

Hi Venka,<br>
<br>
I think that you are on the right track discussing "lower budget" foss4g<br>
conference in "lower income" countries.<br>
<br>
While the Global FOSS4G is firstly an international "gathering of the<br>
tribes" and should prioritise needs of the international attendees, we<br>
should recognise that historically over half the attendees come from the<br>
local region. I agree that it makes sense to see what can be done to<br>
help attract local attendees. If that means minimising costs, maybe by<br>
selecting budget venues etc, then a LOC should have the flexibility to<br>
suggest such options. However, selection budget options, should not<br>
translate to reducing the core items which are expected in FOSS4G<br>
conferences.<br>

Hi Venka,<br>
<br>
Thanks for suggesting specific ideas to implement.<br>
<br>
For this email thread, I'd like to focus on your suggestions related to<br>
financial expectations, so we can take it through to resolution. Namely,<br>
your item 5. Defining how profit should be returned to OSGeo.<br>
<br>
I suggest it is safer to define budget returned to OSGeo as a percentage<br>
of profit. As profit closely aligns with number of attendees, profit<br>
will be larger for larger events. Europe and US have historically<br>
attracted larger attendance than "Rest of World" and hence will return<br>
larger profit. As such, OSGeo should expect to earn less in "Rest of<br>
World" years.<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
Yes, I agree with above. However "Rest of the World" include only<br>
low-income countries and not high-income countries like Australia,<br>
Japan, Korea etc. FOSS4G Conferences in low-income countries may spend<br>
less (lower venue and food costs) and also earn less compared to events<br>
in Europe and North America.<br>
<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
I thought the RFP defined an expected budget to be returned to OSGeo<br>
under conservative estimates, but I can't find reference to it. (Maybe<br>
someone else can point to it).<br>
<br>
For management of special interest programs and sponsorship, I suggest<br>
refer to the email thread "FOSS4G Simplicity" started by Eli Adam,<br>
suggesting the be coordinated outside of the FOSS4G LOC (Like the<br>
academic track).<br>

I agree to making thinks easier and simpler coordinating Academic Track,<br>
Awards, Travel Grants outside the LoC.<br>

</blockquote>
</blockquote>
<br>
+1 for Maria's suggestion.<br>
<br>
I would suggest the following;<br>
<br>
1) There was some comment on issue of too many people<br>
requesting for free conference passes.<br>
We need to clearly decide a guideline for offering free passes.<br>
Free passes only offered to main Workshop Trainer, Keynote speakers and<br>
student volunteers? Apart from that *no one* gets a free pass.<br>
<br>
2) continue the discounted conference fee model for<br>
low-income countries. This model has been successfully<br>
used in FOSS4G-2015<br>
<br>
3) Offer Travel support only for participants who are<br>
have their presentation accepted at the FOSS4G conference.<br>
<br>
4) Are we considering live streaming in future FOSS4G events?<br>
In that case, request local chapters to organize local "FOSS4GFest"<br>
during the duration of the main FOSS4G Conference and<br>
take advantage of watching the live-streaming along with<br>
the local community members who are unable to physically make it<br>
to the FOSS4G event.<br>
<br>
5) Consider recommending LoC to return a minimum fixed amount<br>
of profit to OSGeo. Taking into account, that OSGeo annual<br>
budget for 2015 is $75,000, we could consider having $50K-$60K<br>
returned from the profit to OSGeo foundation when FOSS4G is<br>
organized in high-income countries and $25K-$30K when FOSS4G<br>
is organized in low-income countries (they can retain part of<br>
the profit for organizing events to grow local communities, but<br>
should submit a budget report in subsequent FOSS4G conferences<br>
as to how the profits were used). This will help the foundation to<br>
sustain the "Travel Grant", "Student Award" and "Code Sprint" at<br>
FOSS4G events.<br>
<br>
6) If the LoC of FOSS4G event is able to generate more profit<br>
that stated in item 5 above, let them have a say in planning<br>
how such "extra" profit will be used in future.<br>
<br>
7) Consider a upper cap on the conference registration fee.<br>
I would suggest $100/day of conference event when organized<br>
in high-income countries. This would be much lower when FOSS4G<br>
is organized in a low-income country<br>

Once we have resolution (probably concluding with a vote) we can<br>

<br>
We have draft principles on Finances in the handbook here:<br>

<br>
I suggest using this existing text as the basis for guidance. I<br>
personally think it has the right principles in place. In<br>
particular, it is recommending each conference aim to hand over a<br>
fixed percentage of profits as surplus to OSGeo. 85% is suggested.<br>
I prefer this advise over the suggestion that low income countries<br>
retain more profit.<br>
